When I saw this I got butterflies in my stomach!
I just found out yesterday that we are going on vacation in November for a whole WEEK!!! I am totally
FREAKING OUT about leaving Stedman!!
I have NEVER been away from him for that long before! We are flying to Palm Springs, CA and we are also going to Las Vegas...however we are meeting my father in law and his wife there....I CANNOT FREAKING STAND THEM!! Well I take that back, I can't stand
HIM!!! She does get on my nerves at times, but for the most part she's usually ok. He on the other hand is a TOTALLY different story. The 2 of us don't mix. He is German (my husband is from Canada, his mom is Canadian and his dad is German but they are divorced) and anyway, he is very "set in his ways" so to speak. He just looooooves telling everyone what to do, where to go, how to dress, what to eat, what to drink, etc., etc., etc. He speaks to people like they are children. He even got upset with my husband once because he had a CAP on....WTF!!!!!!!????
I guess that was just too "laid back" for him
It is flipping RIDICULOUS!! Not to mention he was a doctor (he just retired after almost 40 years) and he thinks he is SO high class (well he pretty much is, BUT GEEZ..!). Another thing I cannot stand is him flaunting his damn money around in everyones face. When he came down here to visit a couple of years ago, he went into one of the really expensive men's dress stores here and bought my husband some shirts and pants because it was right around Christmas and he wanted to just go ahead and get our gifts while he was here, that way he wouldn't have to mess with shipping a bunch of stuff down to us. Anyway the man in the store that was helping us had asked him where he was from, obviously because of his having an accent, and anyway, he goes..."I am originally from Germany but have been living in Canada for over 30 years." Then he looks over to my husband and I and goes, "I am this man's terribly rich doctor father, and this woman's terribly rich doctor father in law"..........OH MY GOD!! My husband and I were so embarrassed!!
I just wanted to die! I mean WHO IN THE HELL SAYS THAT????
ANYHOW - my husband knows how I feel about him, but he never even speaks up to him. That has been an issue for him his whole entire life, and of course still is.....
ANYWAY - sorry for rambling on and on...I just had to get some of that off my chest!!...
The point is that, yes, we will be going away for a week next month
And I will have to leave my poor baby behind!!! OMG...I am going to go CRAZY!! I hope that week FLYS by!!! I have already bought another web cam and I am going to have my mom come and stay over at my house for the entire week that we are gone to take care of Steddy and all his brothers and sisters (1 cat and 2 other dogs, + Stedman). It'll be easier that way, and not to mention...Steddy will still be in the environment that he knows, and I know that HERE, he will feel "safe at home" with all his toys, beds, etc., etc. We are going to take one cam, and the laptops...and my mom can use the other cam and the computers here....that way my little Steddy will be able to see his mommy and daddy and we will be able to see our baby
I am going to be bawling my eyes out!! OMG - I so don't wanna go! I tried and tried to get out of it but there was just no way
It makes me SICK that I have to leave my sweet little baby behind just to go and spend a week of my life with that %#$*@#%*!!!
